Field Trips

Policy Owner: Chief Academic Officer

When an instructor plans a field trip for a class, the field trip is to be reported at least one week in advance to the instructor’s direct supervisor via the Field Trip Notification form.

The purpose of the notification is twofold. 1) Insurance and liability issues and 2) Communication issues, i.e. in case a student forgot about the trip location or someone needs to contact the student or instructor during the field trip.
